Thanks for the INFO!

How much is it worth paying for labour to get it changed?

Thanks!

Have a google, I’m sure you’ll find some prices. I did it myself, so I only paid for parts and tools.

Been a bit quiet on the car front recently because of work but did manage to finally get the engine bay cleaned and looking shiney before installing gas bonnet struts to get rid of the original bonnet stand.

The kit was bought off eBay and I was pleasantly surprised by the quality and ease of installation.

One of the best and fastest mods you can do, be carefull the strutt doesnt damage the paint.

So far it doesn't look like it is catching anywhere but will keep an eye on it [emoji106]
